Often with military backgrounds, persons in this category tend to be more self-disciplined, respectful of authority, and appreciative of the security offered by long-term employment. It’s not unusual for mature workers to only have one or two employers throughout their work lives. Traditional->Members tend to sacrifice, make do, follow the rules and think of others before themselves. Baby Boomers-> were taught to change the world through working and playing well with others. Generation X members-> tend to be skeptical, questioning and self-reliant. They're results-driven and realistic. The Generation Y -> is achievement and service-oriented. these qualities are so diverse, they can be used to educate all age groupsDiversity & Inclusion CommunityDisparities & InequalitiesOur CommunityOur WorkforceAccommodate personal employee needs. Different generations of employees will be in different stages of life and may require that employers offer some scheduling flexibility to manage their personal time. But maintain parity so other employees don’t feel alienated. Boomers who are thinking of retirement, for example, may want to cut the number of hours they work in exchange for reduced pay. Gen Xers who need to leave work early to attend a parent/teacher function can agree to make up lost time at another date. Support Millennials who may want to pursue another degree part time and extend the same educational opportunities to other employees.http://guides.wsj.com/management/managing-your-people/how-to-manage-different-generations/Each age group offers insights and knowledge to work room experiences and each have their own expertise that should not go unnoticed by employers. Effectively and when managed correctly, these fit into an ideal work places and make for a better work environment. However, for this to be true there must be good managers who work closely with their groups to ensure that all are treated fairly and are listened to. Not every employee will have the resourcefulness to extract the full benefit of both older and younger employees. The young could grate on the nerves of the older worker, or the younger one could become rude and disrespectful of the older worker. Good managers who understand the value of both young and energetic workers and older and more controlled employees are capable of keeping tempers and attitudes under control.http://www.helium.com/items/1527482-benefits-of-age-diversity-in-the-workplaceyoung workers can bring enthusiasm, fresh thinking and a freedom from old ideas and therefore innovation to the workplace. Older workers bring maturity, life experience, calmness, knowledge about life and situations, good communication skills, and they are used to punctuality and good work habits. Our Diversity LegacyLearning & Development The entire workforce comprises Carolinas HealthCare System community and assists in the core development and implementation of key diversity initiativesOur Customers Diversity & Inclusion Take risks to prove their manhoodBe in control and appear unemotionalmales tend to be more aggressive, they often try to crowd out alternative perspective instead of simply listening.http://voices.yahoo.com/the-benefits-gender-diversity-workplace-5992002.htmlSocial integration at work can only be influenced to a small degree. The formation of cliques and exclusive social groups is a natural process that can be impossible to control at times. Because of this, companies can experience informal divisions in their staff, creating a situation where culturally diverse employees avoid exposure to each other during break times and after work. Although there is nothing fundamentally wrong with this scenario, it can hinder the effectiveness of sharing knowledge, skills and experience, thus curbing productivity growth and the effectiveness of teams.http://smallbusiness.chron.com/advantages-disadvantages-diversity-workplace-3041.htmlhttp://www.forbes.com/sites/glennllopis/2011/08/22/4-skills-that-give-women-a-sustainable-advantage-over-men/Many organizations are placing primary emphasis on people who fit their cultures when hiring. The reasoning is that if the people have the “right” attitude, they will more than likely understand and adapt to the goals and expectations of the organization. The necessary skills can be taught. That is a lot easier than hiring people with the right skills but wrong attitude probably cannot be changed. Many organizations have determined what it takes to succeed in their companies. Individuals from minority groups face challenges everyday dealing with prejudice, discrimination, and stereotyping. Prejudice is defined as an adverse opinion or judgment formed beforehand or without full knowledge or complete examination of the facts; a preconceived idea or bias Our customersrequire more interactionbetween diverse cultures, beliefs and backgroundsOur customers come from all around the worldDifferent Cultures Homogeneous groups often outperform culturally diverse groups, especially where there is a serious communication problem. Heterogeneous work teams often under-perform homogeneous teams because they do not allow each member to make a special contribution to the work effort.First, there is an increase in the cost of training. This increase comes from costs associated with seminars, programs and lectures given to promote diversity in the corporation. These types of training are given to all levels of staff within the organization (Outtz, James L, 2004). They teach employees how to accept the personalities and ideas or thoughts of others. These programs also teach one how to deal with conflicts and prejudice in a professional and civil manner.http://mr-gadget.hubpages.com/hub/Benefits-and-Problems-of-a-Diverse-WorkplaceDifferent BackgroundsWORK CITEDAGEGenderEthnicityRAceGadget.
